Actually, if you have the percentages for your grain bill and you know what the IBUs are, you should be able to scale easily in either direction.

To scale from 5G pilot to 1BBL, scale up proportionately them cut hops by 10%...then fine tune but you will be close.

First post, yeah! So I got a Mr Beer for X-Mas, haven't done anything with it yet but I'm planning to start this weekend. I think I'm going to skip the MRB ingredients and do an actual boil so my question is can I just take a 5 Gal recipe and multiply *.4 to get a MRB sized one? Thanks!

PS yes I've read John Palmer and the mr beer thread...some <grin> ...its 142 pages atm
